What about Pickled Pigs Feet?!

Waxing a smidge nostalgic now - my dad used to dig the pickled pig's feet, and I'd eat them too (I think I was the only other one in the family that did).

Yes, tasty - we never cut them up, just ate them alone off the bone - someone else mentioned grisly, and they weren't wrong - kinda goes with the territory. Doesn't taste much like pork, very heavily brined, it's like comparing jerky to a steak or bacon to a pork chop or a Frito to corn on the cob - doesn't really resemble pork flavor, kinda it's own thing.

Go into it with an open mind.

Btw, although I'm sure some exist, I have no idea of what a pickled pig's foot recipe might look like.

If you like other brined foods, you'll likely enjoy it - if not, might seem a bit odd. If you're not real familiar with brined foods, you might try pickled cauliflower, carrots, and string beans as an accompaniment, with maybe some plain rice and maybe a very plain tomato/cucumber salad or something to be the bland cousin.

Enjoy your adventure!

my dad used to make those pretty often, i can remember seeing them in the fridge in a bowl with some kind of gelatin stuff surrounding them. looked disgusting to me, but he loved them. never did eat any of it.

ate them since i was a kid, delicious! they are soaked in a vinger and season mix. it has a soft chewy texture to the meet and bones you gotta spit out

I eat them juss straight out tha jar with a fork, i usually eat tha ones that are chopped up,not whole..

<<likes pickled pigs feet :)

not bad, but they're really chewy and gristly...plus they still look like a pig's foot so you have this mental image of a pig with his foot in your mouth...lol...

wtf
